How do you guys break in your motors after they have been bored out?

do a search, there are some good threads on it.

heat cycling is good to do.. what i mean is run it for 20 minutes or so, let it cool completely, and repeat 5 or 6 times.. others will chime in too

i go with the heat cycling 5-6 times, then go riding at about half of normal for 10-20 minutes a few times, allowing cool down in between, then go have fun! there are tons of ways people do it, but the main idea is heating up the motor, and letting it cool down, then repeat.

my friend said pros up the quad on a stand and let it idle for 45 minutes and crack the throttle every once a while
